I had to think long and hard before issuing this post! Obviously a very disappointing loss yesterday, especially on Senior Day.....
1) Seniors: Jenifer & Broome combined for (9) total pts, (3) rbs, and (7) Total Assist's.... Sounds like an AVERAGE game for just one player....Not two! Add another (12) pts and we're right in the game... Too much to expect (12)pts from each of them? The two of the them will leave UC, the same way they entered ? AVERAGE !!
2) Scott & Brooks played well enough for us to keep it close / win... (23)pts , (14) rbs not bad....Could have been better on the Rebounding...Most would consider that an AVERAGE game...
3) Cumberland: About (7) Games ago teams figured out, don't let Cumberland beat you and you've got a great shot at beating UC..... That's the recipe, (3) losses later ...If Cumberland is double teamed, is their anyone else this team can count on to score consistently? The answer is NO! Every now and then a player steps up.... ( Scott) against UCF has the game of his life, where was Brooks....A no Show....and that goes vice versa almost the entire season for the both of them....Would anyone blame Cumberland right now if he wanted to take his chances in the NBA?
4) Keith Williams, Moore , & Fredericks: (9) Total pts and (2) rbs.... SERIOUSLY ??? I didn't even play, and the three of them only had (2) more rebounds then me! Williams had an average game, I wouldn't even call the effort by Moore or Fredericks AVERAGE.....Below Average at best!
5) I said this many times throughout the season.... For the most part we have AVERAGE Players... Except for Cumberland who plays like a 5 STAR Recruit, and Williams who SOMETIMES plays like a 4 Star Recruit.... Besides that, we have 3 Star Players.... Which spells AVERAGE !!!
6) AAC Tournament: We actually get a small break playing Temple...But? I wouldn't be surprised right now if we lost...Would you? If by some miracle we face UCF in the Championship, I'll give the edge to UC... If we face Houston for a 3rd time, expect to lose by 15-20pts....
7) NCAA Tournament: I'm guessing anywhere between a 6-8 Seed Possibly... That being said, I would expect a loss in day 3 or 4.... Unless a LIGHT turns on for a few of these guys, can anyone in this forum really see UC advancing past the first weekend ?
8) Bottom line: Average Recruits = Average Team....and that's what we have for the exception of (1) Player who can be counted on consistently... Unless he's being Double and Triple teamed at times... I have been saying it all year, we need to recruit higher caliber players....AND?? If we're not winning the recruiting battles, with a new arena, 8 consecutive NCAA appearances.....Then WHO / WHAT is the problem?
9) All the above spells: AVERAGE.
